« on: Friday 22 March 24 11:43 GMT (UK)  »
I have just ordered some birth and death images. They were there to download almost instantly. Iam very impressed. But...how the heck do I get them to download to my computer? I get a message saying "insecure download blocked" I am certain this is something I am not doing correctly. Any help would be most appreciated , thank you.

The Common Room / Ancestry Comments
« on: Tuesday 30 January 24 16:07 GMT (UK)  »
I have left many comments on other trees on Ancestry. I have just come across one comment I made that the owner of the tree has replied to, also in the comments section. Is there any place on Ancestry I can track my comments and see if they have been replied to please.

Technical Help / Ancestry Maiden surnames.. anyone else ?
« on: Wednesday 26 July 23 16:06 BST (UK)  »
Is anyone else having this problem? I have been entering some details on a branch of my tree, mainly the female's. But when I go back to the lady in question her maiden name has gone and she is now there with her husbands surname. I don't want her under her husbands surname, she deserves to have her own!!  :-[  What am I doing wrong please, I have never had this problem before.

Technical Help / Ancestry only searching Australia!
« on: Tuesday 27 June 23 14:27 BST (UK)  »
When I try and search Ancestry from a profile page on my tree I can only get Australia. I cannot click on the drop down list to change the area I want to search. Has anyone else had this problem please?

Just to update, I have tried everything I can think of and still will not allow me to change from the Australia search. Even after closing everything down and starting afresh when I go to the initial search page and put in Joe Bloggs from Somerset. It still takes me to Joe Bloggs in Australia  >:(  I do not use the Australia search either which is doubly annoying.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Death of cousin
« on: Saturday 03 June 23 12:31 BST (UK)  »
My cousin who died last year , has several trees on Ancestry, her DNA is also on there. Is there any way I can get a note on her profile to say she is no longer with us. So her contacts and anyone looking at her public trees can see it?  I am assuming it has to be her husband who does this? I am not even certain he knows how to use the computer!! I am sorry if this question has already been asked. I did look  ;)

The Common Room / Death
« on: Friday 13 January 23 10:09 GMT (UK)  »
My cousin died just before Christmas. Is there any way I can enter this on her Ancestry profile or  tree. She gave me  access to her tree and DNA results but not to her account. I would just like to be able to inform anyone who may try and get in touch with her.
